On-Lot Septic Details


The East Cocalico Township Ordinance 2003-02 was adopted August 6, 2003 and amended by Ordinance 2004-06 which was adopted May 19, 2004.

Residents with on-lot systems are required to have their on-lot sewage disposal system inspected by a registered pumper / hauler, and followed by regular inspections every three years when notified by the Township. The residents have been divided into three districts as follows:

  • District 1 pumps & inspects: 7/1/25 to 6/30/26; map
  • District 2 pumps & inspects: 7/1/26 to 6/30/27; map
  • District 3 pumps & inspects: 7/1/27 to 6/30/28; map

In the event that a resident pumps before receiving notice from the Township, they are still required to pump within their mandatory year as shown above.
